Lian Li 600mm PCI-e 4.0 Riser Cable White - PW-PCI-4-60W

This item looked quality and fit right. However, I returned it due to being too short for my liking, so I purchased a 900mm Lian Li cable (I don't like trying to stretch cables). I am using a Lian Li O11 Dynamic EVO RGB with an Lian Li upright gpu bracket.

Some Z690 motherboards have two PCI-e 5.0 expansion slots but a modern GPU like the RTX-30 series is 2.5-slot thick, making the 2nd PCI-e slot useless. In addition, the heat dispassion arising from the big surface of the GPU increases the ambient temperature inside the PC case, creating an unfavorable environment to effectively cool the SSDs and other add-ons, which are just a few inches away or less. Finally, frequent ramping up of the GPU fans to their full speed can be annoying during GPU-intensive tasks such as video editing and rendering.The 600mm version of the PCI-e 4.0 riser cable supports several options to relocate the GPU. Changing the GPU’s mount orientation from horizontal to vertical is however a bad idea for mid-tower PCs due to a lack of space for sufficient airflow to the GPU fans. An upright mount is possible but the cooling efficiency of the GPU heat pipes can be substantially compromised for the RTX-30 series in comparison to the horizontal mount orientation, causing higher average & max temperatures in GPU benchmark tests and actual GPU-intensive tasks.Another option is to put the GPU outside of the PC case, where the 600mm version of the PCI-e riser cable was just long enough to make the cut. The ambient temperature outside the PC was cooler and there were more ways to fine-tune the airflows into and out of the GPU. This setup lowered the average & max temperatures by 4-6 degrees in GPU benchmark tests and actual GPU-intensive tasks, making the GPU run much quieter and cooler, the way it should be. It also allows one to over-clock the GPU a bit further for a small amount of performance improvement. Of course, this option is a trade-off between performance and aesthetics for mid-tower PCs.

Needed a longer PCIE4 cable to avoid the dreaded "cable-over-the-mobo" look. Perfect length to route behind the mobo to the upright GPU (7900xtx). Its important not to overly bend, crimp, etc anypart of the cable which is easy to do depending on your build experience. Highly recommend.

The wire is nice and flexible. It looks like it would work.I have a lian li evo xl. This wire does not work with my 4070ti. The slots next to the motherboard don't allow it to properly align and plug in. I removed the grommet and it still doesn't align or plug in. If I turn it around (requires 900mm cable) it can work in the ugliest fashion, which 600mm cable isn't made for that.I tried running this multiple ways and none of them seemed to work even almost. I tried pre assembling it and it also didn't work since the cable doesn't clear the case when pre installed using the slit on the fan and GPU bracket.Very very disappointing for a $90 cable.Maybe it's me, but I been doing this stuff for 20+ years and I tried videos, instructions, my own ways. Not one way even almost worked.No position allowed it to work as expected and risked snapping my GPU plug on nearly every attempt.Love the case, but this wire, I won't recommend for Asus 4070ti cards until I find out it's me or it gets fixed.

No way this cable could be confused with white. Not sure if I got a bad one, wrong one or what, but it's definitely not white

Im getting the same performance (FPS) as if the GPU was in the mobo slot.Great build quality.****the plastic piece on it slides**** it is very easy to break.

It's a quality pci-e Gen 4 riser cable.
